UK MOD Trials Robot Systems for Bomb Detection and Disposal
A live trial led by the UK Ministry of Defence scientists has seen advanced robotic systems, including robot dogs, successfully detect and defuse bomb threats.
The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) trials lasted four days and included remote threat classification and identification using robot sensors; defusing bombs from a robot dog; drones with AI autonomous threat and people detection; and robots conducting tasks such as opening doors and climbing stairs.
Dstl worked alongside L3Harris, Marlborough Communications Ltd and AeroVironment (Tomahawk Robotics) on the trials, which showed that they could enhance Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) capability. The trial supports key components of the UK Government’s Plan for Change, safeguarding national security whilst rapidly advancing new technologies.
